The OCEAN SEVEN Remote Depth Readout displays the OCEAN SEVEN 3xx CTD real-time pressure data, by means of a four-line (4 x 20 characters) liquid crystal display, housed in a rugged waterproof container suitable for mounting at the winch operator’s position. The Remote Depth Readout display is connected to the personal computer running the REDAS-5 program through the Remote Depth Readout built-in RS232C interface. The Remote Depth Readout helps the ship operations preventing accidental damages of the profiling package components like: CTD, Rosette, Altimeter, etc.
The REDAS-5 program sends CTD pressure readings in dbar along with real-time alarm messages to the Remote Depth Readout at configurable time intervals.
